 * *fips_enabled*: Enabling this option instructs {beatname_uc} to use the FIPS endpoint of a service. All services used by {beatname_uc} are FIPS compatible except for `tagging` but only certain regions are FIPS compatible. See https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/fips/ or the appropriate service page, https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-service-information.html, for a full list of FIPS endpoints and regions.
 * *ssl*: This specifies SSL/TLS configuration. If the ssl section is missing, the host's CAs are used for HTTPS connections. See <<configuration-ssl>> for more information.
 * *default_region*: Default region to query if no other region is set. Most AWS services offer a regional endpoint that can be used to make requests. Some services, such as IAM, do not support regions. If a region is not provided by any other way (environment variable, credential or instance profile), the value set here will be used.
+* *assume_role.duration*: The duration of the requested assume role session. Defaults to 15m when not set. AWS allows a maximum session duration between 1h and 12h depending on your maximum session duration policies.
+* *assume_role.expiry_window*: The expiry_window will allow refreshing the session prior to its expiration.
+  This is beneficial to prevent expiring tokens from causing requests to fail with an ExpiredTokenException.
